marriage has changed. the history of marriage, one of the most enduring institutions we have across every society is a history of change. and in this country alone we've made major changes in marriage. we've ended race restrictions on who to marry whom. we've ended the subordination of women. we've ended the government's interference in the personal decision about whether to stay locked into a failed or abusive marriage through divorce. we've ended the government's intrusion into the bedrooms to police for the tell tail signs of contraception. it is altogether fitting and proper that gay people today are standing on this human rights battleground that marriage has always been in the law. and the reality though is that this is not a big change. it is not as the right wing likes to say redefining marriage. marriage is not defined by who's denied it. gay couples should be able to share in the very same commitment and when they do, they don't use up the marriage licenses and they don't change your marriage. it
